A LIZARD IN A WOMAN’S SKIN film still

A British woman who dreams that she has murdered the libertine next door sees her life turn into a nightmare when that neighbor turns up dead and she becomes the prime suspect. Set in early 1970s London, this colorful giallo by the Italian cult director of The Beyond and Zombi 2 is a stylish and visually stunning work that vividly captures the promiscuous, psychedelic hippie era of hallucinatory acid trips. 100% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes! Florinda Balkan and Stanley Baker star. Music by Ennio Morricone; special effects by Carlo Rimbaldi (Possession, E.T.). Adults only! In English. DCP. 104 min.
